They could be a criminal risk. They could have committed a crime or might have shown up on the Eurodac system. We will now have a screening process put in place by the European Union and its member states where if somebody appears on their system as being a risk, we can check against those systems so that if they come up as a tag, we can contact that member state and ask what the issue is. If they are a concern, then we can seek, through the courts, to have that person detained while their application is being processed. Again, it is not likely that they would do that in normal situations but I think it is important that we have that.
